Book excerpt: Personalized Health Systems for Cardiovascular Disease is intended for researchers, developers, and designers in the field of p-health, with a specific focus on management of cardiovascular diseases. Biomedical engineers will benefit from coverage of sensors, data transmission, signal processing, data analysis, home and mobile applications, standards, and all other subject matters developed in this book in order to provide an integrated view of the different and multidisciplinary problems related to p-health systems. However, many chapters will also be interesting to physicians and other professionals who operate in the health domain. Students, MS and PhD level, mainly in technical universities, but also in medical schools, will find in this book a complete view of the manifold aspects of p-health, including technical problems related to sensors and software, to automatic evaluation and correct interpretation of the data, and also some legal and regulatory aspects. This book mainly focuses on the development of technology used by people and patients in the management of their own health. New wearable and implantable devices allow a continuous monitoring of chronic patients, with a direct involvement of clinical centers and physicians. Also, healthy people are more and more interested in keeping their own wellness under control, by adopting healthy lifestyles and identifying any early sign of risk. This is leading to personalized solutions via systems which are tailored to a specific patient/person and her/ his needs. However, many problems are still open when it comes to p-health systems. Which sensors and parameters should be used? Which software and analysis? When and how? How do you design an effective management plan for chronic pathologies such as cardiovascular diseases? What is useful feedback for the patient or for the clinician? And finally, what are the limits of this approach? What is the view of physicians? The purpose of this book is to provide, from a technical point of view, a complete description of most of the elements which are part of such systems, including the sensors and the hardware, the signal processing and data management procedures, the classification and stratification models, the standards and the regulations, focusing on the state of the art and identifying the new directions for innovative solutions. In this book, readers will find the fundamental elements that must be taken into account when developing devices and systems in the field of p-health. Provides an integrated approach to design and development of p-health systems which involves sensors, analysis software, user interfaces, data modeling, and interpretation. Covers standards and regulations on data privacy and security, plus safe design of devices. Supported by case studies discussing development of actual solutions in the biomedical engineering field.

Download or read book A Surgeons Guide to Cardiac Diagnosis written by Donald N. Ross and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anläßlich eines Besuches bei Sir RussELL BROCK in London im Herbst 1956 und während eines Aufenthaltes seines Schülers Donald Ross im Frühjahr 1958 in Marburg a. d. Lahn lernte ich eine Untersuchungsmethode des Herzens und des Kreislaufes kennen, die mich durch ihre Einfachheit und Folgerichtigkeit und durch die hieraus sich ergebenden Schlüsse und Entscheidungen sehr beeindruckte und überzeugte. In dieser Auffassung wurde ich durch die Zustimmung bestärkt, die das Untersuchungsvorgehen von DONALD Ross bei den in der Kardiologie erfahrenen Internisten unseres Marburger Arbeitskreises, den Herren H.E. BOCK, G. SCHETTLER, P. SCHÖLMERICH und E. STEIN, fand. Das Prinzip der von Sir RussELL BROCK und seinen Schülern geübten Unter. suchungstechnik besteht - kurz gesagt - darin, die mit den menschlichen Sinnen erfaßten und durch überlegungen gedeuteten Symptome als wichtigste Grundlage für die Diagnostik der Herzerkrankungen zu betrachten und mit diesen Befunden, deren Feststellung jedem Arzt möglich ist, die Ergebnisse aller technischen Unter· suchungsverfahren (Röntgenuntersuchung, Elektrokardiographie, Phonokardio· graphie, Herzkatheterismus, Angiokardiographie u. a.) in Einklang zu bringen. In einer Zeit der überwertung angeblich objektiver Registrierverfahren ist, glaube ich, eine Erneuerung und Betonung der früheren klassischen Untersuchungen des Herzens im Rahmen der gesamten Herzdiagnostik äußerst nützlich. Zusammen mit dem Springer. Verlag bin ich Herrn DONALD Ross sehr dank· bar, daß er unserer Bitte entsprochen hat, diese Einführung in die moderne Dia· gnostik, die bescheiden als "A Surgeons' Guide to Cardiac Diagnosis" betitelt ist, zu verfassen. Dem vorliegenden Bändchen soll ein zweites über Indikationen und Operationsverfahren der angeborenen und erworbenen Herzerkrankungen folgen.
Download or read book Improving Diagnosis in Health Care written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-12-29 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Getting the right diagnosis is a key aspect of health care - it provides an explanation of a patient's health problem and informs subsequent health care decisions. The diagnostic process is a complex, collaborative activity that involves clinical reasoning and information gathering to determine a patient's health problem. According to Improving Diagnosis in Health Care, diagnostic errors-inaccurate or delayed diagnoses-persist throughout all settings of care and continue to harm an unacceptable number of patients. It is likely that most people will experience at least one diagnostic error in their lifetime, sometimes with devastating consequences. Diagnostic errors may cause harm to patients by preventing or delaying appropriate treatment, providing unnecessary or harmful treatment, or resulting in psychological or financial repercussions. The committee concluded that improving the diagnostic process is not only possible, but also represents a moral, professional, and public health imperative. Improving Diagnosis in Health Care, a continuation of the landmark Institute of Medicine reports To Err Is Human (2000) and Crossing the Quality Chasm (2001), finds that diagnosis-and, in particular, the occurrence of diagnostic errorsâ€"has been largely unappreciated in efforts to improve the quality and safety of health care. Without a dedicated focus on improving diagnosis, diagnostic errors will likely worsen as the delivery of health care and the diagnostic process continue to increase in complexity. Just as the diagnostic process is a collaborative activity, improving diagnosis will require collaboration and a widespread commitment to change among health care professionals, health care organizations, patients and their families, researchers, and policy makers. The recommendations of Improving Diagnosis in Health Care contribute to the growing momentum for change in this crucial area of health care quality and safety.

Download or read book Cardiovascular Eponymic Signs written by Steven H. Yale and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-10 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a novel learning approach that complements and augments the prevailing method of case-based learning. Learning these signs requires the application and integration of the fundamental skills of observation, palpation, percussion, and auscultation, and in more advanced cases, the use of maneuvers performed at the patient’s bedside. The book provides a discussion of the utility of the signs and reviews the mechanism and pathophysiology of related cardiovascular diseases. Each chapter discusses eponymic signs for a variety of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, heart failure, hypertension, venothromboembolism, ischemic heart disease, pericarditis, and peripheral vascular disease. Finding a particular sign during the physical examination enhances clinical suspicion for a specific cardiovascular disease, directing physicians to obtain more specific studies to confirm a diagnosis. This should lead to the delivery of more efficient care with the potential benefit of lowering health care costs. Cardiovascular Eponymic Signs: Diagnostic Skills Applied During the Physical Examination is an essential resource for physicians and related professionals, residents, fellows, and graduate students in cardiology, primary care, and internal medicine.
